Cheetah and Cheshire Rob Justice League: Wonder Woman Year One Creators Reunite

Writer Greg Rucka and artist Nicola Scott, who previously delivered the definitive modern take on Wonder Woman's origin story in "Wonder Woman: Year One," are reuniting for a thrilling new adventure in the DC Universe titled "Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League." This six-issue series, set to be part of the ongoing DC All In initiative, promises a fresh narrative with a dynamic villainous duo at its heart.

"Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League" is penned by Rucka, illustrated by Scott, with colors by Annette Kwok and letters by Troy Peteri. The story revolves around the titular characters, Cheetah and Cheshire, who meticulously plan and execute a bold heist to rob the most secure facility in the DC Universe. Their target? One of the most dangerous devices in the DCU. To pull off this daring feat, they must assemble a top-tier crew capable of outsmarting and outmaneuvering the Justice League itself, all while navigating their own treacherous dynamics.

DC's official description highlights the complexity of their mission, noting that the villains face formidable challenges, including the sophisticated orbital platform's AI-driven security system and, of course, the Justice League. The series promises a gripping narrative filled with tension and high stakes, as Cheetah's personal stakes drive her to undertake this all-or-nothing heist.

“I won’t bury the lede,” Rucka stated. “This is a crew of villains, or at least nominal bad guys. Not one of them has access to—let alone would be welcomed aboard—the Justice League Watchtower. We’re not making this easy on them. But for Cheetah especially, this is an all-or-nothing play—she needs to do this job, and she’s not going to let anything, or anyone, keep her from getting what she’s after.”

The first issue of "Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League" is scheduled for release on August 6, 2025. Fans can get an early look at the series through the preview gallery below:

This new series not only reunites Rucka and Scott but also ties back to their earlier works at DC, with Cheetah featured prominently in Rucka's Wonder Woman runs and Cheshire being a central figure in Scott's "Secret Six" series with writer Gail Simone. This connection adds depth and continuity to the narrative, making it a must-read for fans of these characters and creators.
